Holbrook told the realtors that was a new wrinkle. In the past, he said the reports were filed in state "archives," which amounted to official burial. Not so any more. Under his administration, he said the report along with the "editorial comment" will be madeavailable to the When McCall vetoed HB 2607, he said he thought that would be the end of attempts to draft a new subdivision law.

He admitted that he was mistaken." Legislative committees are already at work on another one, and "you can be assured a new law will come," he said. While it is still in draft form, he told realtors they should be ready with advice and suggestions: "Maybe you can give it direction," he said. Close attention, Holbrook said, should be given to what the consumer actually wants, and what protection the land needs. He considers those basic issues, which will have to be resolved before any "constructive legislation" can be drafted. Despite what anyone thinks of that law, Holbrook said it was there tobe Enforced and he intends to enforce it.

Jot the way it has been enforced in the past which was hardly at all but like it is supposed to be enforced. He told realtors he had the money to hire the staff to do the job. "Consequently, he said, the law will be enforced according to the way the courts interpret it, not the way some people would like to have it interpreted. "It (the subdivision law) is still a very effective tool if used properly," he said, "and we're funded adequately to wield this law where it will cut the deepest." He devoted a moment td the waiver provisions of the bill, which excuse developers from meeting certain provisions of the law under some circumstances. That's fine, he said, as long as the provi-sions are legally provided for.

But he told the realtors he would not condone any waivers "unless expressly defined" by the law. The law on the books now requires that builders and developers file a report with the real estate commissioner before they begin subdividing property in Oregon. Holbrook said that report is "actually a disclosure statement." He called it "tougher" than the one that would have been requi red under the law Gov. Tom McCall vetoed this month. After the report has been filed, the applicant is required to answer questions the state may ask to get information it considers pertinent to the development.

When he sat down Thursday, Oregon realtors crowded into the conference room of the Black Angus restaurant weren't smiling. He made it plain that in his official capacity he is going to run a tight ship. He pulled no punches. And when they hear Cwhat he had to say, homebuilders and subdivi-Iders will probably take another look at Oregon's subdivision law.

That is the old one the one passed in 1963. jit's the one the state went back to after the one passed by the 1973 Legislature was repealed early this year.

Mansfield said he does; not think there are enough votes in the Senate "as of now" to convict Nixon if he is impeached by the House. Mansfield said it was his guess that the President has enough support to avoid conviction. He would need 34 senators voting for him.

Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, echoed Mansfield's assessment of impeachment chances today, saying that "I would say it looks like there are the votes there." WASHINGTON (AP) The Justice Department announced Frjday that a federal grand jury in Cleveland indicted one present and seven former Ohio National Guardsmen on charges of violating the civil rights of four Kent State University students and nine others killed and wounded in the 1970 campus confrontation. The department said all the defendants were charged with willfully assaulting and intimidating demonstrators on the Kent State campus on May 4, 1970, by firing in their direction and violating their constitutional rights not to be deprived of liberty without due process of law. The maximum penalty upon conviction is one year imprisonment and a $1,000 fine and, when, death results from this action, any number of years in prison up to life.

The indictment said all the defendants at the time were members of the Ohio National Guard acting under the laws of the State of Ohio. The students were killed and wounded when the Guardsmen opened fire on a group of antiwar demonstrators. The shootings climaxed four days of disturbances on the; Kent State campus. The Guard was called to the campus May 2 after demonstrators burned a Reserve Officers Training Corps building. skunks with class no WASHINGTON (AP) Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield said today that several House members have told him "the votes are, there" to impeach President Nixon and force a Senate trial later this year.

Mansfield emphasized in talking to a reporter that he has no direct knowledge of what the current situation in the House is and that his evaluation is based on conversations with House members he did not name. This is the first time the Senate Democratic leader has conceded that the House might vote impeachment. Until now, he has said he doesn't expect it. If the House votes to impeach the President, Mansfield said he hopes the Senate will move "as expeditiously as possible" in launching the trial that would determine whether Nixon would be forced from office. He said he hopes the start could come possibly within two weeks of the House vote.

If the House by majority vote impeaches the President, the Senate would sit as a jury with House members conducting the prosecution and Chief Justice Warren E.

"The trouble with the film producers is that they can only see as big as they are," Kesey said. "They have no sense of a- person's i commitment to art." Kesey presently is excited about a new plan called the Bend in the River Council, a gathering this summer of worldwide expert opinion on a wide range of issues to enable Oregonians to decide on possible directions for the next 25 years. It is planned for the Fourth of July at Bend. The council's steering committee, which includes Kesey, already has received a $12,000 planning grant for the session.

Other Kesey projects include "The Spit in the Ocean," a series of essays prepared by different authors. For example, Timothy Leary will write about "consciousness" from his jail cell in California's Folsom Prison.

I The author-film producer-ecologjst gazed at the dripping greenery around him. He said he hates to see the Hollywood movie producers come to Salem this spring to produce the film version of "Cuckoo's Nest," the popular novel about anti-establishment battles set in a mental hospital. "The Hollywood dream makers really jacked up Newport when they filmed my other novel, 'Sometimes a Great he said. "They made a lot of promises, got three women pregnant and, suddenly, they were gone." I Kesey came to Salem this week from' his 60-acre farm at Pleasant Hill near Springfield to participate in the university's first Northwest Writers' Conference, a- three-day workshop session. Filming of "Cuckoo's Nest" is supposed to begin in Salem in late April or May, following several postponements by its producers because of strikes and other problems.

Parts of it will be filmed in an abandoned section of the Oregon State Hospital. Saul Zaentz, Berkeley-based head of Fantasy Records, will co-produce the film with actor Michael Douglas, who co-stars in a television series, "The Streets of San Francis-Co." Actor Burt Reynolds is scheduled to play the lead role of McMurphy, Kesey believes. Kesey says the skunks" from Hollywood presented him with a contract they wanted him to sign. One part stipulated that he would forfeit all royalties from the filming if he was arrested during the filming. During the late 1960s, Kesey made headlines whel he formed a group called the "Merry Prakksters," whose members regarded life as a work of comic fiction.

Although most of them attended the meeting that followed, no one spoke in opposition to the budget, which was drafted earlier this month by the school district budget committee.

The thief was "tall, nice looking, well groomed and about college age," she said.

He shoved a note at her that said: "Open the cash register. Give me all the bills and don't say anything." And he kept both hands in his coat pockets. One hand looked suspiciously like it held a 'gun. "I was so scared my knees buckled," Maudie said. "I was just scared pink.

"I'm not the cashier," she told the holdup man. 'l can't open the cash register." That was a white lie. And in the end, Maudie mothered the man out of the deed. "He said 'please' and said 'please' again," Maudie said. "I looked at him and told him he didn't really want to do this, that he was too? nice a man, too nice looking." She told the robber he was too nice to get in trouble with police and that he ought to get a job.

She said she had a grandson, age 10. A tear rolled down behind the man's dark glasses. "He cried and I was just about to," she said. The man took his hands out of his pockets and gestured that he didn't have a gun. "Aren't you going to call the police?" he asked her.

"I'll stand here and wait." Maudie looked him square in the dark glasses and said softly: "What for? You go now and go straight. Be a sweet boy." The man walked out of the store. Salem's proposed $18.2 million school budget for 1974-75 was ratified Thursday night Voters will be asked to approve it at the May 7 election. TTie proposed budget calls for a tax levy of $15.4 million in excess of the 6 per cent limitation. That is $1.3 million higher than the 1973-74 Salem school budget.

Property owners will pay $16.75 per $1,000 of true cash value if the budget is approved, or 41 cents per thousand less than they paid to finance Salem schools in 1973-74. Teachers have opposed ratification of the budget because teacher salaries for 1974-75 haven't been agreed upon. They claim their salaries are more or less frozen once the budget has been officially approved. Oscar Specht, school board chairman, doesn't agree. He said the board will continue to mediate with teachers on salaries through Monday.

1 "And it (mediation) can continue right up to the time of the election," he said. The school board met Thursday night for the final public meeting on the budget. Before it began, teachers gathered outside the School Administration Center at Ferry and 13th streets with banners and signs urging further negotiation.

Chief John R. McGuire of the forest service announced the conclusion in Washington, D.C., as his agency filed a final environmental impact statement on tussock moth control with the Environmental Protection Agency. The moth is damaging and killing fir trees on more than 600,000 acres in northeastern Oregon and adjacent areas of Washington and Idaho. "It will be necessary to plan now to use DDT to control the outbreak in order to prevent widespread damage to the forests and felated resources," a summary of McGuire's statement said. The EPA has authorized the emergency use of DDT if necessary for control of the tussock moth.

It could still become unnecessary if natural factors cause the insect outbreak to collapse before treatment begins, but the forest service doesn't expect that to happen. Robert H. Thorheim of the forest service headquarters in Portland said, 'The naturally occurring virus that we hoped would reduce the moth population sufficiently was found but mostly in very low concentrations. "Direct chemical control must be carried out in some areas to prevent further damage. "Although it is expected that the application will affect certain wildlife in the area, that's a trade-off that must be accepted." (Earlier story, Page 9) Roy E.
